worth its weight in bling. I sense a nominal proclivity here.

This is a stunning and evocative photograph with beautiful composition! It is hard to understand how anyone could have given this image a "1" but someone did. I guess there's no accounting for taste...

Awarded for the March 2013 Free Study, for the reasons identified below.

This image has caused me to stop and pay attention. That means it is in my 7-10 voting band. (Voted earlier)

Additionally, it is highly interesting/eclectic meaning it keeps me here long enough to offer a longer comment and a vote of 8 or more.

This is one of my 10s - I like it very much. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:

1. My word, what a composition - the structural elements of the photograph, the interplay of shadow and highlight is just perfect.

2. The environmental contextualisation is fantastic. As a viewer, we get a real sense of where we are in the building, it's structure - how the room beyond the upper door feels, how it is lit - like we know it. You've communicated a familiarity of the space despite it being strange to us. It's like we're piggy-backing on someone else's cognition - someone who feels at home here.

3. The woman downstairs, she is interacting with us but remains apart as an observer. But, again there is a degree of familiarity communicated through the scene. A palpable sense of belonging of each and every facet of the image - including our own viewpoint.

Overall, this is one of the best photos I've ever seen. Takes my all time favourite spot on DPC - or at least ties with nixter's headless swimmers.
